Chapter 67: Nightmare or more?

A mysterious woman was hugging him, and Gabriel couldn't even recognize the woman. It was his first time seeing that woman. And why was she calling him her son? He found the entire thing really strange.

Unfortunately, this was just the beginning of strange.

Carrying him in her arms, the woman walked out. As the woman carried him in her arms through the hallway, he noticed the guards respectfully bowing to her. They had the utmost respect on their faces.

The woman brought the little boy to a glass door. Through the glass door, he could see that on the other side, there was a balcony.

A middle-aged man stood on the balcony, carrying a serene aura. The man had both his hands on the balcony, looking into the distance. There was a beautiful golden crown on the man's head which appeared very heavy yet not at all uncomfortable.

Two young men stood on each side of the man, donning a beautiful Armour that was versatile yet carried a strong defense.

One of the two young men noticed the woman in the back who had a child in her arms.

The man hastily opened the door for the woman. "Your Majesty."

The other young man also turned around. "Your Majesty."

The middle-aged man was the last to turn around. "There you are."

A beautiful smile graced the lips of the young man. "Why are you carrying him? He's the Prince and the future King of this Empire. He can't show weakness, especially on his birthday. Let him walk on his own."

'King of Empire? What is this dream? It's so weird.'

Gabriel was placed on the ground, yet he remained confused. He walked to the edge of the balcony, standing right beside the middle-aged man, only to be amazed. There were millions of people standing down, cheering for him.

"Karyk, look at them. They are our people... They are our citizens. They came here to wish you for your birthday and to catch a glimpse of you. Aren't you going to thank them?" The middle-aged man chuckled. "Come, do as your father does."

The middle-aged man started waving his hand proudly. Gabriel also did the same, still trying to make sense of this dream.

He was sure he had never seen these faces in his life. He wondered if it was his subconscious desire to be a King, and that's why his mind was showing this dream. He didn't have any luxuries in his life. In fact, he hadn't even seen his father.

His family was incomplete, and even his mother left when he was too young. To him, it made sense if his mind was showing his subconscious desires. And since he had memorized the name of Karyk and heard about his past, it also made sense that Karyk's name was being used for him.

'Hah, a dream where I can become the King... Too bad it can never happen in real life.'

Since he couldn't experience it in real life, he decided to at least enjoy the dream. He observed the faces of the citizens and waved at them.

However, the sky soon turned dark. The winds started flowing faster, even getting colder. Everything started getting dark, including the faces of all the citizens. Only their eyes could be seen. However, those eyes didn't have love in them. They were filled with hate as those eyes looked at him.

"Demon!"

"Demon!"

"You should die as well!"

"Why are you still alive?!"

"You devil! You should burn in the flames of hell!"

The cheers initially went silent before they turned into screeching curses, all coming in their direction.

"Huh?" Gabriel frowned, turning to his right. The middle-aged man wasn't there anymore. It was as if he had disappeared.

"Brother..." A voice came from the back, attracting his attention. He hastily turned around. However, all he saw was a young girl who had her hand missing; most of her body was burned, making it hard even to recognize her face.

"Brother, why did you eat my soul? Why did you kill me?"

"Son, answer her..." Another voice came, making him raise his head, but this time there was only a headless body that he saw. The headless person was still wearing the same attire as the woman who had called him son, but those clothes were covered in blood.

"Answer her! Why did you hurt us? Why did you hate us? Why couldn't you let us go?"

"Brother, answer... Why?"

"Why, son? Why?"

The questioning voices kept getting louder and louder as the two figures moved closer to Gabriel. He subconsciously stepped back, but there was no way back. One more step and he was going to fall.

"Why couldn't you die instead?"

"Why did it have to be us?"

"Why didn't you stop it?"

"Why?" The mutilated bodies kept getting closer and closer.

Gabriel tried casting a spell to protect himself, but it didn't work. None of his hands had the Mark of elements. He didn't have the ring either. There was no Grimoire. He was no more than an ordinary human at the moment.

The two bodies stopped right before Gabriel before asking once again. "Why? Why didn't you die? You should've died! Died like this!"

The burnt girl placed her hand on Gabriel's chest before pushing him gently. With no floor behind him, Gabriel fell off the balcony...

"Arghh!" A filled the roam as a young man woke up from his slumber, sitting up straight.

His body was covered in sweat, including his forehead. His heart raced so fast that he could count his heartbeat even without touching his heartbeat.

"The dreams... They are getting worse! First the dream in the hotel and now this!"

He had been in the city for two nights straight, and both nights when he slept, he saw a nightmare that forced him up.

Fortunately, at the end of the day, it was just a nightmare.

He got off the bed and walked to the balcony to get some fresh air. Unlike that other balcony in his dream, this one wasn't that high.

"What is happening to me? The dreams... No, the nightmares... What do they mean? Why is my mind going crazy? Why?" he looked at the moon, talking to himself.

He had nightmares even before in his life, but none were as intense and as realistic. Moreover, these nightmares made him feel really bad on the inside. He didn't know why that was the case. Even when he was up, he felt somewhat sad in his heart for some reason. It was as if there was some unexplainable sadness in his heart.

"Hmm?" As he lowered his gaze, he noticed a young man walking toward the Dorms. It was so late that it was surprising that the person was just returning now. But as soon as Gabriel realized who that person was, a smile graced his lips. Finally, he found a distraction he needed.

"Finally, we meet again, Hawrin."

He used the Ring of Apophis to change his face again along with his clothes before jumping down the balcony. He entered the dorms again behind Hawrin without being seen by the young man.
